I think the attached is the right way to fix it.
load_system_certificate_list(), for example, when it creates keys does this:
key = key_create_or_update(make_key_ref(builtin_trusted_keys, 1),
marking the keyring as "possessed" in make_key_ref(). This allows the
possessor permits to be used - and that's the *only* way to use them for
internal keyrings like this because you can't link to them and you can't join
them.
